I concidered putting solar on my house.

The first thing I did was look at the available roof area that faces the sun without obstruction.

It is slightly more than a square meter in area, not enough to provide squat in terms of energy.

Doesnt qualify as MOST ROOFS.

Backpeddling, but nontheless, it is true for most roofs in my area.

In sunny, warm parts of the country, i.e. those areas with solar
energy to be collected in the first place, more houses are build with
the long axis north-south than are built with the long axis east-west.

The other way would cook everybody and everything that was in the house.

Nope.

I rarely have to turn on the AC during the summer because I know

Most roofs don>t face the sun;

Thats just plain wrong.

Only 1/4 of my roof is on the south side.

Thats plenty for powering the house.

No, it>s not.

Yes it is.

Yes it is.

Not in the Northeast US.

Wrong again. And there isnt just the roof anyway. Its perfectly possible to have the panels on other than the roof
when the roof is unsuitable, stupid.

See below.

Completely useless, as always with your mindless shit/lies.

[quote]Consider a blizzard lasting 2 days with 3 feet of snow on everything. Heating by solar panel will not work.

Wrong again with adequate insulation.

Sigh!

Heavy breathing aint gunna save your bacon, wanker.

[quote]How do you clear the snow and ice from the panels?
[/quote]
You design them so they dont collect it in the first place, fool.

[quote]with a snow shovel? If the panels are on a roof, do you honestly believe that people should climb up and clear those
panels?
[/quote]
You design them so they dont collect it in the first place, fool.

And if you>re too stupid to do that, it might just be a
good idea to not put THOSE panels on the roof, fool.

[quote]If the panel setup is on the ground, how do you clear away 3 feet of snow and ice?
[/quote]
You design them so they dont collect it in the first place, foo.

[quote]Does one sprinkle the panels with NaCl?

The US Northeast can survive without AC but not without heating in the winter.
[/quote]
Its completely trivial to insulate it well enough so that it can survive a blizzard of that length, fool.

[quote]I keep the house cool during the summer using the shade of those trees.

You can shade it with the panels instead, fool.

Not the side of the house.

So you replace the current trees with trees that shade only the side of the house and not the roof. Not a shred of
rocket science whatever required.

You keep spending money to solve these problems.
[/quote]
No one said that solar is free, fool.

[quote]When your power consumption increases, what are you going to do?

Dont let it increase.

You have kept your power usage a constant for the last 10 years?

Yep, in fact its gone down.

So has mine. But it will be going up.
[/quote]
More fool you. Mine wont. It will go down even more as the
increasing cost of electricity makes solar heating more viable.

My guess is that if you used the terms "ROI" and "cost of money" on
him you would be met with blank silence.

Guess again. Even someone as stupid as you should be able to use groups.google

He obviously has no idea what the words "possible", "practical", and "economical" mean.

You>re lying now. I have repeatedly said that solar power makes no sense when the grid is available.

Everything he says is possible, little of it is practical, and none of it is economical.

Which is what I said when I said that solar power makes no sense when the grid is available, fuckwit.

So now you are saying all that ranting about modifying roofs, installing
special supports, cutting down trees, moving to a different house with
a south facing roof, ad nauseum only applies if electrical service is not
available?

What IS your point if you actually have a point in one sentence?

Never ever could bullshit its way out of a wet paper bag.

[quote]In terms of what is practical, all HER claims are valid.

Wrong, as always. Its perfectly routine to deal with a particular
house that doesnt have enough roof area with the right orientation.

Its trivial to ensure that snow and ice arent a problem.

Even someone as stupid as you should be able to grasp that even
just an array thats designed to rotate so that the active surface
is facing downwards when its snowing etc will do that fine.

Doesnt even need anyone to leave the house if its designed right.

[quote]From all your name calling

Corse you never ever do anything like that yourself, eh ?

[quote]and your childish propensity to call people liers at the drop of a hat,

You>re lying, again.

If you lie about what I have said, you can be quite confident that I will point that out, liar.

You get to like that or lump it, liar.

[/quote]
Only a terminal fuckwit such as yourself would actually be that stupid.

In language you may be able to understand; lier, lier, pants on fire.

Have you a clue where you are contradicting your earlier statements?
